This was our second stay at Loft of Riley. Again, excellent amenities, view, and privacy. We experienced a lot of rain, but the ample supply of firewood made for a very cozy stay despite the inclement weather. We experienced a heating problem in the casita, but the hosts were right on the problem and corrected it quickly. My brother stayed here two months earlier and also enjoyed the fireplace during a rainy period. My wife now is planning getaway here in April with several of her friends. They will enjoy the well-equipped kitchen and the proximity to Stefanie Inn and Anna's Table.

This is hands down the best place we have ever stayed (and we stay places a lot)! Communication with host was quick and pleasant and helpful, the place was crazy clean, there were plenty of blankets and firewood for stormy nights, and even a backup plan if power went out! Plenty of space for all of us and the little studio was a perfect set up for making space for couples and family. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms were well equipped and great…. And then you just walk out the front door and go on a long walk on a beautiful beach! I mean come on… seriously best place we’ve been and I cannot wait to visit again!

The kitchen was very well equipped for gourmet cooking. All accessable and good quality. The views are specular and it's not unusual to see seals, whales and resident pelicans surfing the air above the waves. And nature gifted us nights of wind and rain to put us to sleep and big surf viewing during the day with blue skies. Our rooms were tidy and clean and the guest bath had heated floors and the mater bath was huge with heated towel rack. It was our 55 wedding anniversary and we could not have found a more delightful place to stay with friends, family and our toy Schnauzer Inky. And our host was caring and professional. Tom & Penny

5 Stars - Absolutely Perfect Stay!

Our recent stay at Loft of Riley in Arch Cape was nothing short of amazing! The views—both inside and out—were off the charts. A true front-row seat to the stunning Oregon Coast.We booked this home as a getaway to bring our family together (7 of us total), and it was absolutely perfect. Everyone had their own private space, yet there was so much room for all of us to gather in the open living, dining, and kitchen area. It was spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed.We cooked every night and were blown away by how well-stocked the kitchen was—everything we needed was there, including plenty of spices and every utensil or pan we could want. No detail was overlooked.The home itself was spotless, beautifully maintained, and so welcoming. Communication with the host was excellent—she even checked in during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed (which we absolutely did!).And as a family who travels with our pup, the fact that the home is pet-friendly was the icing on the cake.This house and its incredible location are at the very top of our list—we will absolutely be back!

Stunning View

My family of five (2 adults, 2 kids ages 10 & 13, and our pup) enjoyed three nights at Loft of Riley. The view and location right on the beach simply cannot be beat. The home itself is impeccably clean, has everything a renter could need, and even came with some delicious goodies from the host. It is only a few minutes drive to Cannon Beach, making it a perfect location to grab a meal and then retreat to your private space after. Our family hopes to return to Loft of Riley for another weekend with beautiful views and fun on the beach.

Best Location!

I can’t say enough about how perfect the location is of Loft of Riley. Arch Cape is a quieter spot than Cannon Beach, so you really feel a sense of serenity and privacy. And the house itself is situated on a perfect location along this pristine stretch of coastline. The view of the ocean is center stage and the walk down to the beach is so easy. Steps away, so you can enjoy your morning coffee while you stroke on the beach. And the sunsets are always beautiful. The property also feels even more private among the natural landscape surrounding it. We have stayed at Loft of Riley a few times and it has stood the test of time, feeling well kept and well appointed every time. We also loved how thoughtfully stocked it was. Drinks and snacks in the fridge, coffee and flavored creamer! It was such a nice touch, and it lets you just enjoy the house without worrying about having to get to the store day one. We can’t wait to return!

A Great Place to Stay

My wife and I have stayed at dozens of the nicer vacation rentals in the US. With all things considered, this one is in the top two or three. Features that really stuck out included the privacy, view, easy access to the very walkable beach, modern remodeling, amazingly well-stocked kitchen, high-quality appliances, plentiful firewood, cleanliness (including the view windows), everything worked, closeness to Cannon Beach and excellent restaurants, and ample, comfortable outdoor seating. The beds were somewhat small and low, but adequate. Overall, this is a great place.

Family Vacation

My family is large enough (15) that I had to rent 2 Vrbos,The Loft of Riley and Captain's House. They were about a mile apart. The Loft of Riley was perfect for us to use as our base for meals and beach access during the day. It is a beautiful beach home with a spectacular view and easy beach access. Also, we had access to beach toys, boogie boards, wood for fires on the beach in the evening, etc. It is a bit pricey but well worth it!! I would rent it again in a heartbeat.
